The Hilliard Ensemble | |
Fee on application | Classical/Romantic/Mixed |
David James countertenor Rogers Covey-Crump tenor Steven Harrold tenor Gordon Jones baritone
The Hilliard Ensemble can offer 4 and 5 voice early vocal music programmes from across Europe, both sacred and secular. Their programmes reflect the singers’ on-going research, and frequently complement the early music with contemporary pieces, many of them specially commissioned. The breadth of their recordings on ECM demonstrates most clearly The Hilliard Ensemble’s 12 century span of repertoire.
Sample Programme:
A Hilliard Songbook: The Hilliard Songbook programmes are very flexible, mixing old and new, sacred and secular. They can be tailored to particular acoustics or themes and are ideal opportunities for introducing new music.
